You took my heart and you held it in your mouthAnd with a word all my love came rushing outAnd every whisper it's the worstEmptied out by a single wordThere is a hollow in me now

So I put my faith in something unknownI'm living on such sweet nothingBut I'm trying to hope with nothing to holdI'm living on such sweet nothingAnd it's hard to learnAnd it's hard to loveWhen you're giving me such sweet nothingSweet nothingSweet nothingYou're giving me such sweet nothing

It isn't easy for me to let it go'Cause I've swallowed every single wordAnd every whisper, every sighEats away at this heart of mineAnd there is a hollow in me now

So I put my faith in something unknownI'm living on such sweet nothingBut I'm trying to hope with nothing to holdI'm living on such sweet nothingAnd it's hard to learnAnd it's hard to loveWhen you're giving me such sweet nothingSweet nothingSweet nothingYou're giving me such sweet nothing

And it's not enoughTo tell me that you careWhen we both knowThe words are empty airYou give me nothing
